Results of the ISPMA analyses for the 64 OTU ‘sample’.

<p>The number of OTUs representing each family is proportional to the font size in this “Wordle” image. The families shown ‘pre-analyses’ (top) are represented by one (smaller text), or two (larger text) OTUs. After analyses, using a 95% detection threshold, however, some families are ‘increased’ in their OTU numbers by an order of magnitude. Families shown in red in the input sample are not present in the output set, families in green font in the output set are not present in the input sample. The inset table also shows the outputs at 90 and 92% detection thresholds.</p

Two examples of probe sharing between OTUs.

<p>On the left are shown the 56 probes that represent the OTU 6350. Probes shared with OTU 6368 are shown in the red shape, while those shared with OTU 6366 are shown in blue. The intersection of the red and blue shapes shows probes shared by all three OTUs (centre circle). All 14 and 17 probes (100% of the probe sets) for 6368 and 6366, respectively, can be found in the probe set for OTU 6350. On the right is illustrated how the complete 22 probe, probe set for OTU 5451 can be assembled from probes representing other OTUs.</p

<i>Aspergillus hancockii</i> sp. nov., a biosynthetically talented fungus endemic to southeastern Australian soils

<div><p><i>Aspergillus hancockii</i> sp. nov., classified in <i>Aspergillus</i> subgenus <i>Circumdati</i> section <i>Flavi</i>, was originally isolated from soil in peanut fields near Kumbia, in the South Burnett region of southeast Queensland, Australia, and has since been found occasionally from other substrates and locations in southeast Australia. It is phylogenetically and phenotypically related most closely to <i>A</i>. <i>leporis</i> States and M. Chr., but differs in conidial colour, other minor features and particularly in metabolite profile. When cultivated on rice as an optimal substrate, <i>A</i>. <i>hancockii</i> produced an extensive array of 69 secondary metabolites. Eleven of the 15 most abundant secondary metabolites, constituting 90% of the total area under the curve of the HPLC trace of the crude extract, were novel. The genome of <i>A</i>. <i>hancockii</i>, approximately 40 Mbp, was sequenced and mined for genes encoding carbohydrate degrading enzymes identified the presence of more than 370 genes in 114 gene clusters, demonstrating that <i>A</i>. <i>hancockii</i> has the capacity to degrade cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, pectin, starch, chitin, cutin and fructan as nutrient sources. Like most <i>Aspergillus</i> species, <i>A</i>. <i>hancockii</i> exhibited a diverse secondary metabolite gene profile, encoding 26 polyketide synthase, 16 nonribosomal peptide synthase and 15 nonribosomal peptide synthase-like enzymes.</p></div
